One common intention for those seeking therapy is a readiness for change. Something has shifted and they feel it is time to do some personal work. I honour the courage that takes and I am ready to meet you where you are. I work with people seeking therapy for a range of different reasons. A place to speak without judgement. A therapeutic relationship that feels supportive and validating. A container to explore and process trauma. A person who accepts you for who you are. An experience that allows you to try out ideas. A partnership that welcomes emotions. A place to land, to learn, to be hopeful, to rest and to feel.

Struggles at school or at work? Feel like you are underachieving based on your potential and the amount of time and effort you put into tasks? Do you wonder whether you, or your child, may have a learning disability, ADHD, or other challenges to your learning and/or effective performance?

When did you last feel "light"? If you’re living with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, panic, conflict and fear, it feels like you are always looking for ways to "get by", cope, and maybe lift some of the burden. Although your circumstances, experiences, and needs may differ, you are not alone. People who face these things often share a common desire- to feel lighter, not weighed down by what they have gone through, or are still going through. Whether by reconnecting with yourself, developing effective ways to manage your symptoms, or simply finding a safe space to rediscover your laughter, it is possible to find healing, peace, and even joy.

Today’s world is a challenging place and the stresses that come from it are often unavoidable. Stress can affect your body, your thoughts, feelings and behaviour. How we respond to our stress is what is important. If we learn to respond positively, we can learn and grow in ways we had never imagined. My goal is to support you on your journey to better psychological, physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. I have particular interest in the areas of anxiety and stress management, disordered eating and body image, domestic violence, communication and healthy relationships.

My approach to therapy is person centered ( you lead the way) and non-directive ( I am not the expert of your life, you are!) I work with teens, adults and couples. My goal is to grab my therapeutic tool box and a flashlight and meet you exactly where you are at so we can find the way out of the darkness together. I am trained in EMDR ( Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and have found it to be a very effective therapy for a variety of mental health issues including PTSD and CPTSD.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
